Sure. Dallas wears a star. It wouldn't be any worse than that as far as I'm concerned. I watch and enjoy the game for what it is. I don't care what players do or wear. I'm simply not that fragile.

Principles do not equal fragility, comrade.

Personal principles are a basic set of rules that guide your life. Principles vary from person to person. What falls within one person's set of principles may very well not fit within yours. Your principles guide what you say or do, not what others say or do. Understandably, you personally would not wear a swastika or hammer and sickle on your helmet because it is against your principles. Someone else may not have the same boundaries within their set of principles. What they do or say should not affect your principles, or what you do or say. So what you say is true. Fragility doesn't equal principles. Fragility in the sense that I used it refers to a lack of tolerance of another's set of rules or principles ... what they choose to do or say.



I personally would not wear a swastika or hammer and sickle on my helmet because it is against my principles. However, I must be far more tolerant of others' principles. I do not let them upset me because they have no personal impact upon what I say or do. It all comes down to tolerance, or lack thereof, I suppose.
